Edward Lear, |
| I |
| The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea |
| In a beautiful pea-green boat, |
| They took some honey, and plenty of money, |
| Wrapped up in a five pound note. |
| The Owl looked up to the stars above, |
| And sang to a small guitar, |
| “O lovely Pussy! O Pussy my love, |
| What a beautiful Pussy you are, |
| You are, |
| You are! |
| What a beautiful Pussy you are!” |
| II |
| Pussy said to the Owl, “You elegant fowl! |
| How charmingly sweet you sing! |
| O let us be married! too long we have tarried: |
| But what shall we do for a ring?” |
| They sailed away, for a year and a day, |
| To the land where the Bong-tree grows |
| And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood |
| With a ring at the end of his nose, |
| His nose, |
| His nose, |
| With a ring at the end of his nose. |
| III |
| “Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling |
| Your ring?” Said the Piggy, “I will.” |
| So they took it away, and were married next day |
| By the Turkey who lives on the hill. |
| They dined on mince, and slices of quince, |
| Which they ate with a runcible spoon; |
| And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand, |
| They danced by the light of the moon, |
| The moon, |
| The moon, |
| They danced by the light of the moon. |
